The Spectre Staff's homing projectiles in action.

The Spectre Staff is a Hardmode, post-Plantera magic weapon that fires a fast-moving (61 mph) white "Lost Soul" projectile which homes in on the nearest enemy. The projectile looks similar to the one fired by the Ragged Caster, but cannot travel through blocks. The Lost Soul projectiles can also deal damage (or "pierce") three times before disappearing. The Spectre Staff has a 1/20 (5%) / 39/400 (9.75%) chance of being dropped by Ragged Casters in the post-Plantera Dungeon.

Its best modifier is Mythical.

Notes

  • Like all weapons with homing projectiles, the Spectre Staff's projectiles do not home in on other players in PvP.
  • Despite having "Spectre" in its name, the Spectre Staff cannot be crafted from Spectre Bars.
